Hi there
It only happened with the old photos from the database, that were
already imported as miss-paired ones.
Have you found a way to re-combine miss-paired ones?
I tied the following:
1. copied a set of mis-paired RAW+JPEG from the pictures folder over to
a DCIM folder on my camera
2. moved the set of Photos to trash inside shotwell. empty trash inside
shotwell (and delete files)
3. removed remaining files from my pictures folder
4. removed *_shotwell and *_embedded files from the DCIM folder on my
camera. (now only the original .ARW and the _ARW.jpg are left).
5. did a new import from camera.
did non work :( that is, files are not paired properly. Still, RAW and
JPEG are imported separately and embedded jpeg will be extracted.
Is that because the JPEG files were renamed to P000000_ARW.jpg and I
have to set every JPEG back to P000000.JPG, how filenames look usually
out ouf camera? Or are any traces to the files and the development
settings left back from the first wrong import? I thought these were
cleared out of the database in step 2.

Indeed it looks like Shotwell handles new imports much better now. I
did’t have any problems with this.
These checks have always occurred as part of EXIF reading; we modified
Shotwell slightly to report more of these kinds of errors (this
message in particular is from libgexiv2, which tends to be a bit
verbose when it finds something in an image that it doesn't quite
like). As for slow performance and/or metadata reading and writing
when the application is first started, are you seeing this every time,
and does the metadata progress bar ever complete? If not, then you
may be seeing an alternate case of
http://redmine.yorba.org/issues/4297, and we definitely need to know
about this.
Thank you for taking time to let us know about what you're seeing. If
you have any other feedback, please let us know.
I had the problem from Bug#4297, but it is fixed with 0.13 for me.
Shotwell does not popup "Writing metadata" progres bar while this is
happending. Starting up the program I get "Refreshing database" and
"Importing photos" progres bars for just a short time (1 sec).
After this Shotwell is using my external HDD very intensively for about
5 minutes (tried both NTFS and ext4 file systems). All operations are
very slow during this period and I am not able to delete photo, export
image, etc. When the HDD finally stops spinning everything is OK.
Best regards,
Miloš
